Organisations in Switzerland can now operate their whistleblowing channel with EthicsPortal. Switzerland has no general whistleblower law, so Swiss channels apply the standard of the EU Whistleblowing Directive voluntarily, with Swiss wording. The documents cite the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) instead of the GDPR, and they name the country where the data is hosted.

The Data Processing Agreement has a section for the FADP. Swiss teams can use EthicsPortal in German, French, Italian or English.
